        Forex and being successful at it takes time and commitment and also seed money.

        Learning the ropes will cost you a certain amount of "tuition".

        So it is paramount to have this "seed" investment

        Getting started in IM is much more affordable for most

        Oh, god, you're already starting to believe Forex trading is low-risk. Those advertisers did a great job.

        I'm in no position to talk about Forex trading, but I know someone who is successful both at affiliate marketing and Forex trading, and has told me that affiliate marketing is much easier compared to Forex. Granted, affiliate marketing is just a part of what we call Internet marketing.

        Also, you need a lot of money to make money from Forex. With Internet marketing, there are even free ways to generate traffic and only need money for things like hosting, Aweber, etc., which are not very expensive.

        To be quite frank, you're likely to lose much more money from Forex trading than internet marketing.

        It's a high-risk model that you're bound to lose money in when now starting out, that's just part of how you learn.

        I've never done Forex but I know people who do; this nonsense about consistently doubling your money (or something to that effect) with every trade just isn't true.

        On the other hand, there are many skilled marketers who more than double their investment from paid traffic, and there are those who make even more than that.

        Bottom line is this:
        If you don't like risking your money, Forex is far worse than internet marketing.

        Regards,
        Daniel

        It is not what's best to promote. It is how your promote it.

        You have to learn how to build your own website to capture leads. You need to setup an autoresponder. You need to learn how to talk your list. You need to learn how to market online. You need to track what is working for you when it comes to promoting.

        It takes time but if others are doing really well as affiliate marketers, so can you.

        Change this mindset now or stay out of internet marketing.

        This business isn't for the timid. You will lose money

        The difference between successful internet marketers and the ones who fail are...

        Successful people are willing to take risks and if they fail they will turn that experience into knowledge to help them keep moving forward until they do succeed.

        If you aren't willing to take a risk and fail. Then get off the computer right now and go find a job.

    • I realize this was posted in March and you are probably not even checking this thread anymore....but I'm going to post to it anyway.

      My advice is to not, under any circumstances, get involved in Forex Trading. Very few people make any real money with Forex....most people just lose money

    Success is a habit you form. If you aren't succeeding with IM then FOREX is going to take you broke.

    There is a lot to forex marketing like understanding the world economies and making an educational decision on where certain currencies are going.

    It's knowing to invest only 10% of your balance.

    Id go back to IM. Making money online is very easy once you understand. Find a mentor and study that person like an eagle and do what they do.

    Find a product or service that is in demand and is proven to sell. Look at those earnings per clicks. If you can't find them then ask the vendor. If the don't reply or tell you then don't promote their product cause it is not making any money.

    After you find a product it comes down to traffic and conversions. Master these 3 things and you can print your money on demand with this tool.

    How about this then: Promote forex related products such as signal services or brokers as an internet marketer. You will learn both at the same time and then when the time comes, you decide which one is for you.

    That's the big questions for everyone. It's figuring these things out, or failing to do so that separates the successes from the failures.

    There is no one right answer.

      If you don't want to lose money with online entrepreneur, then stay away from trading and all kind of paid ads. Trading is not as as easy as other hype claims. Also, like being mentioned by Randall, consider selling physical products on eBay or Amazon FBA as well. Affiliate marketing / CPA are not the only ways you can make money online these days. Selling physical products is better since it tends to remain hot for longer term.

      I disagree. I made money with forex trading. So do other forum member, that I knew. Usually people who said this in this forum are not even entrepreneur, they're freelancers who's looking for free money in this forum. So many these days.

      That's funny and not even remotely true. Plenty of full-time successful forex traders out there. Also, there are legitimate teachers floating around too.

      The best one I know doesn't even want his students to live trade until they finish the 1 year+ training and assignments he has designed.

    If you start the Forex, you need to invest a good amount of money & you may lost everything. On the other hand if you would like to start with the IM, you may need to invest a small amount of money even you can start the IM without any investment. So you need to start with the IM fast. Thanks for your asking.

    forget forex... go with IM. Never tried it but im 100% sure that your chances of succeeding are higher. Actually in forex they almost don't exist. In theory is 1-2%. In practice is far less than that.

    forex will take you too much time and you ll probably give up after a few years. in my case i didn't but it took me around 8 years to learn what is really going on behind the scenes and lot of cash. 99.9% of retail traders got no clue whats really going on...

    good luck

    They are two different avenues but with different risk exposure. It really depends what your skills are but with forex you almost have to expect that you will be losing some amount of money since you will have to learn the ropes of the industry and certain tactics that can only be learned through taking action and analyzing the result. With IM it is a different avenue all together, learning will still have to be done but the risk exposure is less then trading. So it really depends on your skills and what you want to do with them.

    Good luck.

    I laugh when I read some of these comments.

    Rule #1: Take no advice from those who have
    never traded or failed at it.

    ...that would be the majority here.

    With that said...

    ...I can tell you don't have the right mind
    set to be trading "anything".

    You're coming from a position of "I need to
    make money" instead of investing and growing
    your account balance intelligently with time.

    Yes, there is a lot of money in it if you do
    it right, but there's a lot of loses as well
    BEFORE you learn how to get it right.

    You must have a high-tolerance for risk to
    handle trading wisely.

    Whereas affiliate marketing is less risky...

    ...but personally not as financial rewarding.

    Than again, I do both. I enjoy both. And I am
    good at both. But I've failed big time trying
    to get both right over the years.

    All this to say...

    ...stay away from trading if you're desperate.

    And, if you ARE going to trade, demo trade a
    strategy or two for several months with results
    before putting any real money on the line.

    You can do this on the side and learn the in's
    and outs while making money with affiliate
    marketing.

    You can make money with Forex as well as with IM. Forex requires investment and there is a risk of losing money but if you take trading seriously and treat it with respect and discipline then you can really make money easily. I know it because I'm doing it, but there are only 2 techniques that I use which I've found to be working really well.

    IM is what I love. It takes more work than trading but I'm somehow fascinated with how you can create something from nothing, put it online and there it is - making couple of dollars. Then you make a few changes, launch another site and more money is coming. While trading requires money to trade with and bears serious risk if you don't have a real strategy and discipline, IM can waste literally years of your time if you don't follow the right advice!

    In short, don't listen to those saying you can't make money. Yes you can make money with Forex and with IM but you really need to be serious about it and calculate expenses and profits before you jump into anything.

    Hope this helps...

    There's less risk in IM than in Forex. However, you can make good money in Forex trading if you know what you're doing.

    I say, start in IM, and learn all the ins and outs of Forex before you even think about doing any trading. Also, find an expert that will mentor you.

    Hi Chmouri Future Marketer, I was in the same position as you once. I was so desperate to make money that I fell for a trading robot advertisement which promised high rewards. My reward was an empty bank account and disillusion. Now I do Internet Marketing which I enjoy and I have control in what I am doing and not a stupid robot. And my financial rewards are much higher. I do not deny that if you take the time to become an Expert in Forex Marketing you probably will make more money than the average person in Internet Marketing, but then you have to learn the ropes first. Good luck in whatever you will decide doing. Best Regards, Christina

    Neither. Both.

    You have not provided any info for anyone to advise anything meaningful.

    There are people making lots of money with both options and people failing at both options.

    They both require skills and accurate thinking.

    You're saying, I failed as a horse rider; should I try bull riding, then?

    Why did you fail at internet marketing? The same thing might make you fail at Forex trading.

    So,

    1. take the first step: analyze yourself and your actions carefully. Review your skills carefully.

    2. Then, find accurate info about what's really involved in becoming good at marketing and Forex trading.

    3. Then take the next step:compare your skills to what's required. Figure out where you're lacking and if you can compensate/learn.

    4. Decide.

    If you want to be successful at anything in life, you must start making these kinds of decisions for yourself! Start taking responsibility and be willing to face the consequences of your decisions, whether good or bad.

    There's nothing wrong with asking questions in order to get a grasp of what's possible, to make a decision.

    The absolute BEST thing you can do is invest your money into a coach/mentor. It is very easy to become overwhelmed in IM and you need someone to guide you.

    There are so many different ways to make money in IM, what a skilled coach and/or mentor will do is figure out what your strengths are and then focus on those. They will be able to put you on to creating your first revenue stream which will be revolved around the knowledge and skills you already have and they will help fill in the gaps in order for the project to become complete.

    It will not be cheap but it will save you alot of frustration, your learning curve will shorten dramatically, and you will be earning from a stable reliable business sooner than if you try to do it all yourself.

    Good luck on your journey

    Wow. There is nothing more annoying than people who consider themselves authorities on subject matters they know absolutely nothing about. I have done internet marketing and I currently trade Forex so I can explain better than any of the above posts or those below my post. First of all let me correct all of the ridiculously nonsensical statements uttered above:

    1. Do you need alot of money for forex? Answer: No. You can start trading with as little as 100 dollars and build your way up with small lot sizes like a microlot(.01) which is 10 cents per pip. Then you can increase as you start winning trades. PLUS you dont need to use real money when you first start. You can use paper money(fake money) in a demo account and practice until you build your demo account. Anyone of the ignorant people above who lost money were to slow to realize they should practice before trading live.

    2. Will you lose all your money in forex? Answer: Not if you learn how to trade a system that is logical and accurate.

    3. Which is more profitable forex or internet marketing? FOREX by faaaaarrrr. You can make so much more money in forex than you can by building a list, doing worthless seo, selling on ebay or amazon, writing articles, adsense, clickbank, comment spamming, youtube posting, yahoo answers posting or even selling your own ebook. The forex market is the biggest market in the world with $3 Trillion in trades....DAILY. Of course you will make more money trading.Think about big banks like JP morgan, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and millions of banks and financial firms all around the world trading day in and day out.

    Trust me the richest trader and the richest internet marketing guru, the trader would consider the internet marketer's income chump change.

    4. Which is better forex or internet marketing? That all depends on you. Me personally I trade forex because my internet marketing business eventually failed. Many internet marketing systems are temporary. With forex I know i can make money from the markets everyday. I can also make big money within minutes of trading and be done for the day. With internet marketin one thing that is good is if you have something that runs on autopilot and you can just do whatever while you make money even in your sleep. But I think forex is better since i can make more money even though its slightly a little more work.

    So everyone in this post who has never traded forex before and is saying all of these incorrect things, do yourself a favor and do some research or actually get some trading experience before you start talking nonsense. See ya

    Forex trading is a very risky business and it needs practice, patience, and strategy. Don't go for forex, If you are serious then try demo account and follow any professional mentor. You need to invest some money for forex learning .

      There so many forex forums that offer very good learning resources and trading systems for free. You dont have to spend anything. Go to forexfactory.com, forex-tsd.com, dailyfx, youtube. It is easier to make money with forex using a good strategy than trying to making 2 cents per click on youtube or .0000003 conversion rate for those awful clickbank products. Gimme a break

            Any dumb guy can make a 500% return over a short period of time...Remember that.

            Look, I used to work in finance. I went to university to study Finance...I know about finance... and when I read these sales page about Forex trading I'm laughing so hard you have no idea....Sometimes when I'm in a bad mood I actually go on Clickbank and read some of these sales laters.

            These are the same dumb people selling Gold as the most amazing thing in the world. The stock market will collapse and Gold is the best thing ever...They basically scam people without education into making them believe that these investments are good.

            Forex is the worst though, because trust me, NOBODY is going to become good at forex trading without a REALLY REALLY DEEP understanding of the markets.

            One more thing about gold:

            You have two options:

            1)You have a gold nugget that you keep for the next 50 years....After the 50 years, you will still have the same freaking gold nugget...Nothing more, nothing less.

            2)Or you could get a productive asset, like a piece of land for example. Over the 50 years, you could grow food on it, build houses on it and sell them, or just build a house on it and live in it to keep you warm during the winters...

            The piece of land is producing something over a period of time, but the piece of Gold doesn't...Pick one.

    IM of course. Forex is whole science and you need years to learn it!

    IM is a business you build. Forex is a risky trade. "leverage" is a double edged sword. You can lose all your money in Forex with a single wrong bet.

    I would suggest you learn internet marketing first. Build a list, sell some products. List building, copywriting, engaging with an audience is much more valuable skill then risky trades.

    If you lose your money in IM, you still gained at least some experience, some skill. If you lose money in forex, you just lost money, probably learned nothing.

    If you are both interested in Forex and IM, why not build a list and an affiliate business around forex? There are lots of courses, scripts/signals etc in Forex market. Choose one proven product (say, highest gravity in Clickbank) then build a list, then promote that product to your list, see what happens.

    I hope this helps.

    Totally different markets..... on which you need education + $$$$$.

    About Forex: do it without a guide and you will lose all your money. The risk is high....

    Our business group has Italian Experts on the forex market that make big money, but they have a lot of experience....

    remember most people lost money because

    1) They can not admit they are wrong

    2) They do not use stop losses.

    This game is risky, and with IM you can test small, and with IM, and online marketing, its the cheapest place to fail.

    I am an ex stockbroker, too. So The positives are better with IM, and that is why I moved there.

    One thing really stinks here on this thread...
    Someone who has stated they have an interest but no appreciable experience in either Forex Trading or Internet Marketing is getting 'advice' to "do" internet marketing in the Forex trading niche?

    Are you guys serious?

    Is there a way to block the posts of folks who spew such drivel? Or better yet- report obvious trolls like these to mods for removal?

    None of these require quick fix. You need to learn the trade properly, passionately and consistently. If u r money-driven, you will, almost invariably fail. Forex Trading takes at least 2 years to break even.

    I haven't been able to figure out Forex. But, if it was me I'd stay away from using leverage. Use your own $ and not someone else's. People say it's no risk to lose when you have leverage since your broker will just close your account once it reaches zero. But I don't like the idea of the broker having so much control and me being so dependent. I still don't see why I would even need a broker...Can't find anyone online who does forex without one.

    Are you sure that you will make money from Forex? I don't think investing money on Forex trading is a good option. It is too much risky. To be an expert trader, it will take long time. I think it is much better to invest your money on internet marketing or Affiliate marketing. For Affiliate marketing, you have just need to spend little money on Facebook Ads and through Facebook, you will be able to make good amount of money.

    Risk is something you must take in life to be successful no mater what you do. But you must also make sure to take risk that you can handle. Your worst case scenario is you lose an amount of money that you have never lost before and now you not only have to perservere and be strong but also handle the emtion that comes with it.

    A good way to look at risk is, how much do you spend daily. If you spend $100 a day on most days then loosing this money won't be a problem. So you can risk this on your venture. Now if you are a person who spends $20 a day then this should be the most you should risk. So here is the risk to yourself relation.

    In my opinion, go with both and try them out. Work very very hard. I mean set goals and objectives and use all the free resources as possible out there (Youtbe, Blogs etc.). And see which works best for you and maybe you will find one or the other to be more for YOU and then you can focus on that.

    I trade Forex markets successfully! And I do Internet Marketing Successfully! And also, Successful is a relative term too (e.g. Family time, free time, money earned in X amount of hours worked compared to last business etc etc.) Wish you the best!

    If you got significant money to start, ever thought about becoming a landlord? 5 properties @ $750/ month can net you $3750/mo. You can pay a third party less than $100/house to do all of the management for you, and still pocket over $3200.

      And 5 properties at $1000 can net you $5000. Ten properties at 750 can net you $7500 and 1000 properties at 750 can net you 750,000 a month.

      And $100 a month to manage is not enough. It's more like 10% of gross. And there's maintenance to think about... Plumbers around here want $100 to replace a sink faucet, painters about 1 month's rent to paint an apartment.

      And, though roofs can last 30 years, refrigerators and many other components only last 10. Which means, from the 750 a month, you bet set aside $75 for maintenance, $75 for replacements, $75 for someone to rent your units, $75 for vacancies...

      Pretty soon, it's less than $400 a month and we have not talked lousy tenants, the kind that know how to stay in your place a year without paying a penny.

      And, if he had significant money, he'd have hired himself a coach or two and wouldn't have started this thread.

      Mind you, owning real estate that's producing is an awesome idea. But not as easy as you make it sound, even if you have significant amounts of money.

    I would rather build a long term, sustainable business, where the odds of success are much more under my own control.

    Forex trading is a specific thing.

    'Internet Markteing' is just a promotion method. Many people use the term incorrectly, using it to reference selling ebooks or videos. 'Likewise 'niche marketing' doesn't refer to anything other than a promotion to a demographic.

    You should perhaps consider what you want to sell as a business on the Internet.

    Once our thinking becomes correct the path becomes more clear.

    Only focus on Forex when you have succeeded in a normal day job or in your own business. Just like any investment opportunity, you should only use money you can afford to lose.
    If I were you I wouldn't start with both, not IM and absolutely not Forex. Just look for a job and If you already have one, just ask your boss for a higher salary. If it's hard to replace you, they will most likely give you that. Once you have a bunch of money to burn, then focus on IM, sign up for the war room, pick an idea, focus that one idea completely and you'll succeed.

    Internet marketing requires way less upfront investment and time to become profitable. Even people with 10 year trading experience have months where they lose money. So this game if mostly for people who already have plenty of money to play with.
    IMHO, stick with marketing and learn trading on the side with very small amounts or demo accounts.

    If it's only 2 niches why not try both and see what works best for you. With Forex you can start on a demo account and practice until you get good. With Internet marketing you'll have to spend allot more money to see if it works for you.
